### Publications
##### n.8316. Uebersicht untersuchter Pilze
**Title**
*Uebersicht untersuchter Pilze*, besonders aus der Umgegend von Hoyerswerda... \[Linnaea vols. 24, 25, 26\]. 1851-1855. Oct.
**Notes**
*Publ*.: A series of papers in *Linnaea*:
24: \[99\]-128. Mai 1851, 129-153. Jul 1851.
25: \[71\]-80. Jun 1852, \[723\]-742. Dec 1853.
26: \[705\]-742. Sep 1855.
We have seen no repaginated reprints; a reprint with original pagination is at FH. – Published in Linnaea because of the interruption of the publ. of *Die Pilze Deutschlands* in Sturm's *Flora* (see above) after Sturm's death. The diagnoses were meant for the Flora. Their form and contents are heavily influenced by Albertini and Schweinitz, *Consp. fung. lusat.* The latter book deals with the fungi of Niesky in the Upper Lausitz (and not in N. Galicia as erroneously stated by us sub TL-2/75) only 35 km from Hoyerswerda where Preuss worked. For full details see Meyer (1956).
